Is anyone else having trouble logging onto the UF's tracking page? It's driving me crazy.

I am having the same problem. I think that you have to complete the VMCAS application before registering for a tracking account. Once you have done that, click on following link and scroll to bottom of page and click on link "CREATE ACCOUNT" to set up tracking account. After registering, you should be able to download the Applicant Information Sheet and the Applicant Essay Form (I am still waiting on one LOR before clicking "submit" on my VMCAS)

So I just want to confirm that the Professional Student App is due by the 2nd and the supplemental due by the 30th?

I hope I am not sounding dense here but I only found their Professional Student App, which took $31.75 from me. ($1.75 service charge if you pay online). Is there an additional supp app??

I thought it was all due Oct 30th? Maybe I am missing something?

Glad I'm not the only one who is confused by Florida's app process... I completed the online UF Professional School application and paid the $31.5, or at least I thought I did. I received the email confirmation thanking me for paying the fee weeks ago, but the money still hasn't come out of my account. I believe you do have to submit your VMCAS before you can set up a tracking account and submit the essay.

There are 2 parts to the supplemental application. There is the professional app where you pay the fee and there is the tracking on their website. Just go here http://www.vetmed.ufl.edu/education/dvmapplication/ and click on setup a tracking account. That is where you fill out some info and can print out the essay and supplemental form. You don't have to submit the VMCAS to setup the account, you just have to have a VMCAS ID

Does anyone else's tracking page seem like its not up to date? I submitted VMCAS last week, and also had transcripts sent to UF, but the tracking page says everything is "Not Yet Received," and its making me nervous loll.

They usually take a while to update so I wouldn't worry. If you are still worried you can probably call them to confirm.

This confused me too so I asked. From the mouth of Ms. Chaparro herself:

"The UF Professional School Application is due October 30, 2009. The two items you are supposed to download from the tracking account are due October 30 also. Here is a link for this information:
https://www.vetmed.ufl.edu/education/dvmadmissions/online_application.html"

UF only downloads the Professional Application to their database a few times during the process, so I wouldn't worry if that hasn't been received yet. Mine still says they haven't received my transcripts which were sent a long time ago so I sent an email last night about it...I will let you know what I hear.

Ok now I have a silly question. For the essay...are you guys copying and pasting the prompt into Word and then writing your essay? I'm unable to write in the PDF file that opens and they say to limit the essay to the space provided so.... thoughts?

Yeah I think that's what I'm going to do. When I type it into the PDF the text just shrinks to fit. So Word it is!
